AUTUMN PROPHECY, by GORDON DALE CLARKE First Line: The season of death and repining Last Line: Inevitable to death. Subject(s): Autumn; Seasons; Fall | ||||||||
The season of death and repining Comes too colored with gay clarions For the silly, fitful shell of human hearing. But there's a softness of death, -- a gypsy Who swoops with gentle whispers, mocking, Ironic, as she piles red tree-tresses in Damp hollows . . . Such wisdom. the vanguard of dying, Inevitable to death. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...OUR AUTUMN by ELIZABETH AKERS ALLEN AN AUTUMN JOY by GEORGE ARNOLD A LEAF FALLS by MARION LOUISE BLISS THE FARMER'S BOY: AUTUMN by ROBERT BLOOMFIELD A LETTER IN OCTOBER by TED KOOSER AUTUMN EVENING by DAVID LEHMAN EVERYTHING THAT ACTS IS ACTUAL by DENISE LEVERTOV WINTER NIGHT by GORDON DALE CLARKE MARIA CALLAS, THE WOMAN BEHIND THE LEGEND* by MADELINE DEFREES |
